Mountains and seas close at hand

"—Boom!"

The tail of the salamander Huan slammed down heavily, stirring up waves that wet the roof of the cave, and the water droplets rolled down the uneven stalactite rock wall with a "crash".

Song Banyan's ears were buzzing, and his mind was chaotic, leaving only the feeling of pain.Viscera, skin, muscles and bones, pain everywhere, as if being run over by a muck truck seven or eight times.

"Whoa!"

Suddenly sinking into the deep water, Song Banyan shivered from the cold, and his head became much clearer.She looked around, it was pitch black, and she didn't know where she was.There is no warm yellow light, no human voice, only the almost barren loneliness.

She glanced down at the water.

The deep water is as black as ink, icy cold, and what's even more frightening is that you don't know what's under the water.

Could there be a water monkey with bulging eyes, lying in ambush in the water, and its wet fur can be touched with the fingertips a little forward.Is there a highly poisonous water snake, slightly raising its triangular head, swallowing the tip of its forked tongue, waiting for a blow.At the bottom of the unfathomable water, is it a weird plant with long vines swaying along the water, slowly wrapping around the bones of the feet...

Complicated thoughts flashed by, Song Banyan shivered, and quickly hugged the tip of Salamander Huan's tail.

Before she could collect her thoughts, Salamander flicked her tail again.Song Banyan was dizzy, she knew that she would be dumped sooner or later, so she had to think of an idea.Compared with the cold and dark deep water, she is more willing to be tied with Salamander Huan. After all, Salamander Huan is used to living in shallow water near the shore, and there may still be a chance of survival by following it.

The climbing rope tied with the engineering shovel has just been lost. What should I use to tie myself and Salamander Huan together?

Song Banyan was still thinking of a solution, but Salamander Huan had quickly retreated into the water.The icy deep water submerged Song Banyan's head in an instant. Before she had time to think about countermeasures, she hurriedly jumped her head out of the water, and took advantage of the fleeting time to take a deep breath.

"call!"

With the back and forth swing of the salamander's tail, Song Banyan sank back to the bottom of the water.At this time, the surroundings gradually opened up, and Salamander Huan was like a dragon returning to the sea, his huge body turning half a circle in the water.With a flick of its tail, its limbs and claws swung vigorously, and it swam further into the darkness.

The speed of the salamander's swimming is not fast, and the tail flicks away from the water.Song Banyan sank and floated in the water, tried his best to adjust his breathing rate, took a deep breath while floating, and managed to maintain his life.

This is not the way to go.

After soaking in the ice water for a while, the body temperature passed quickly, and Song Banyan heard his teeth chattering up and down.She followed the tail of the salamander and tried her best to climb up.Hugging the tip of the salamander's tail with both arms and legs, Song Banyan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had a chance to free one hand to touch his belt.

As soon as his tingling fingertips touched the leather head, Xing Huan suddenly trembled, struggling desperately like mad.Song Banyan was startled suddenly, hugged his tail hastily, and muttered to himself: What's the matter with this salamander Huan?Is epilepsy crazy?But don't throw me away...

Before she could finish her prayer, Zhehuan's head plunged into the deep water. This time it didn't surface again, but sank deeper and deeper.It's like an out-of-control submarine, tumbling and rushing in the water.

The water pressure was like a mighty force, the exhausted Song Banyan couldn't hold on any longer, and the hands and feet that were holding the tail of the salamander loosened little by little.

With a long sigh from the bottom of his heart, Song Banyan lowered his arms in relief, still wrapped in the current, sinking into the depths of the abyss.

Goodbye, dear Miss Bai.

Goodbye, those who have known each other by fate.

Distance is like flowing water from east to west, even though mountains and rivers are separated, they will meet each other in the end.

So, just goodbye.

just...bye...

...then when can we see you again?

Dear, forgive me, after all, I just passed by...

Suddenly, the arm tightened.

Song Banyan was startled in a trance, and reluctantly opened his eyes slightly.A little warm yellow light miraculously appeared, like a star falling into her eyes.

In the pitch-black water, in the abyss of despair and helplessness...in a foreign land wandering at a loss, in the desperate situation of rage...in that strange public security bureau.

You are a miracle given to me by God, destined from the beginning.

You are destined to save me,

Let me live warmly in this world.

Hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes and melted into the cold deep water.Song Banyan opened his arms and hugged Bai Xunhua tightly.Bai Xunhua wrapped the climbing rope around her body. Leaning on the climbing rope, she still rolled and struggled, but she couldn't shake the two of them off.

"Boom...wow!" Salamander Huan jumped up from the bottom of the water.

"—Boom!" Then he fell heavily into the water again.

Like a sprint, Salamander Huan's tail swayed wildly from side to side, like a sharp arrow, rampaging through the water.It didn't take long for the salamander Huan to struggle less and less.

Song Banyan paused for a moment, thinking that this guy finally couldn't move anymore.

"Huh." Bai Xunhua exhaled softly, inserted five fingers into his hair and stroked upwards.The damp hair on her face was immediately stuck to the back of her head obediently, revealing her delicate facial features and smooth forehead.

Song Banyan's pale lips raised slightly, revealing a bright smile.

However, the corners of her mouth hadn't had time to rise to the right position, and the salamander who had just calmed down was like a wild horse running wild, rushing forward crazily.

Just like the last [-]-meter sprint in a marathon, no matter what, try your best.

Song Banyan's heart sank, and a cruel intent suddenly shot out from his eyes.She hugged Bai Xunhua tightly, and shouted in her ear: "This will drag you down even if I die!"

That's not a good thing to say.

This is not like what Song Banyan would say.

Bai Xunhua smiled softly, reaching out to hug her back.

Salamander Huan opened his mouth wide, and the cold deep water rushed in.Scoured over the tongue, passed through the throat, flowed down the esophagus, and poured it all into the stomach.Wave after wave, like a wall of waves on a stormy night.

Pan Xiaohong was powerless to resist at all, like a broken leaf sinking and sinking in the huge waves.If Wen Luoluo hadn't wrapped him up in a black net, he would have drifted to nowhere.

Wen Luoluo wasn't much better either.

The dagger cut a wound in Salamander Huan's stomach, and she pulled her arm in with all her strength.At this time, Wen Luoluo was like a dead leaf on the top of a winter tree, trembling and barely able to keep her head exposed and able to breathe.

If only a little more water was poured in...

"Throw you away." Wen Luoluo muttered weakly.One end of the black net was wrapped around her wrist, and the heavy weight strangled her hand, which was already numb.

I don't know if he is dead or not?

Wen Luoluo thought about it in a daze, and felt that the guy was probably dead.She didn't go to untie the black net either, but in the violent shaking, she barely concentrated on praying: If I can go back alive this time, then I won't...

She thought about it and thought about it, but she couldn't give up anything.

Wen Luoluo sneered resignedly: "Forget it."

As soon as she finished speaking, the world suddenly turned upside down!

Song Banyan and Bai Xunhua felt as if they were riding a roller coaster, turning around abruptly, and then...

Song Banyan blinked her eyes, the sudden steadyness made her in a trance for a moment.She patted the salamander's tail tentatively, the cold and rough touch was so real, but it was full of lifelessness.

dead!

"Xunhua!" Song Banyan roared, his hoarse voice was full of ecstasy, "It's dead! It's dead!"

Bai Xunhua breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed in disbelief, leaning his head gently on Song Banyan's shoulder: "Yes."

The couple who survived the catastrophe, relying on the salamander Huan, embraced and kissed each other.

Backing away slightly, Song Banyan lifted his chin, kissed Bai Xunhua's forehead, and confessed with emotion in a hoarse voice: "Go home, let's go home."

"Okay." Bai Xunhua kissed her lips.

The two cheered up and checked the surrounding environment.It's a pity that all the lighting tools have been lost, and the surroundings are pitch black, and nothing can be seen clearly.

Song Banyan suddenly remembered the bag on his back: "Xunhua, hurry up, I have spare fluorescent sticks in my bag."

Bai Xunhua looked at the open backpack, sighed secretly, and reached in to feel it.Of course there are no light sticks, not only that, but it is empty inside, so the equipment was lost during this battle.

After a moment of silence, Song Banyan suddenly took out a pack of waterproof matches from the hidden pocket of his clothes.It was used by her to prevent it from falling into Kong Jieyi's hands and to burn the sheepskin rolls when she had to, but she didn't expect it to be effective at this time.

The long, specially made match was lit, and the orange light illuminated the surroundings, and both of them were happy at the same time—the shore was not far away, but because of the huge size of Salamander Huan, the two were separated a little far away.

Climbing up along the tail of the salamander, the two of them stepped on the belly of the salamander and rushed to the shore in a near-bolt all the way.The match went out halfway, and Song Banyan didn't bother to light another one.

The huge head of the salamander rested on the shore, three or four meters above the ground.Bai Xunhua inserted the dagger into its skin, wrapped the climbing rope around it, and the two pulled the rope to climb down.

Song Banyan grabbed the salamander's bony teeth, stuck his head into its dark mouth, and shouted loudly: "Xiao Pan? Pan Xiaohong! Pan Xiaohong! Xiao Hongzi! Wen Luoluo! Wen Luoluo!"

Bai Xunhua heard her screaming repeatedly, his throat was so hoarse that he couldn't hear what she was saying, so he quickly pulled her down: "Banyan, go and look around, I'll go in and take a look."

Bai Xunhua listened to the mouth of the salamander for a while, but when there was no sound, he climbed up again.He went straight to the belly of the salamander, put his ear on it and listened carefully.

"...Boom, boom, boom boom, boom, boom, boom."

If there was any dull knocking sound, Bai Xunhua was overjoyed, and listened carefully, it was three shorts, three longs and three shorts.This is SOS, the international Morse code distress signal, never wrong.

Salamander Huan has a huge body, rough skin and thick flesh.Fortunately, I may have been hungry for a long time, and there is not much fat left.But even so, it took more than an hour to disembowel it.

Pan Xiaohong was lying on the ground with a sour smell all over his body, staring at the void with unfocused eyes, and he didn't know how long it took before he uttered a syllable: "...ha."

Wen Luoluo looked at the burning fire in front of her, and said in a good mood: "That's right, I'm still warming up by the fire."

"The things are gone, but the bag is still there anyway. Plastic is really a good thing." Song Banyan held up the arrow cluster and took a deep breath. "If you can't eat boiled fish, some grilled fish would be good."
